Grief and Loss Counseling in Rosedale, CA.

Grieving is a natural process and I work with my clients to understand how the effects of grief are impacting their life and finding ways to process through that grief to make it less negatively impactful. I take an educational approach in teaching my clients the stages of grief and how to navigate those stages in an emotionally healthy way. I hope that through our work my clients learn how to integrate their losses so they can move forward with their lives.

Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of grief & loss through the lens of innovation----instead of growing the same neural networks responsible for the pain in weekly therapy sessions, we reset the brain to move forward quicker and efficiently by working on the stuck limbic system so as to empower the person with more success and traction. For no one wants to stay in a grief mode for too long; but when you don’t include the brain in your work with someone, you risk describing the water to them while they drown and calling it success.

Grief and Loss are some of the most real and difficult emotions and feelings to deal with and to cope and live with. Loss of a beloved family relationship, dear friend, mentor, as well as a beloved pet can cause a shock and vast loss that is seemingly impossible to overcome. Grief and loss therapy is very important to me and has been a major part of my decades of counseling. Grief and loss therapy is not a band aid to the pain. It is a process for working to create closure and a continued internal relationship which can still sustain life after loss. When relationships are important, grief and loss are a process of dealing with the depths of love and attachment which are key to being human.

Although grief is an inevitable experience in life, coping with loss can be immobilizing. Because each individual is unique, finding the support you need to move through to a place of peace and acceptance is vital. I work with clients to help them process the pain of loss by addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual issues that may be keeping them from resolving their pain and moving forward to a place of healing and acceptance. We work together to build a structure that both motivates and enables the healing process to begin and ultimately gives them the opportunity to overcome and triumph over grief.

Jesus said that we would have trouble in this world. But He also said for us to take heart, because He has overcome the world (John 16:33). It's not easy to find such heart in the midst of grief, but purpose can be found in our suffering, and God promises to bring good out of bad situations (Romans 8:28).
